I really enjoyed this collection of short stories I want to explore of the work by some of these authors.
Latina is a mix of short stories, excerpts, and essays on the life of the Chicana The work clearly demonstrates the confusion of identity of Latinos in the U.S The book perhaps shows a sort of pattern to the level different socioeconomic groups attempt to Americanize The lowest, poverty stricken usually new immigrant and the upper upper middle classes both seem to grasp their Latino heritage and language One from need, the other from enlightenment Those who are in between seem to try and disavow [...]
This book is about Latina women writing about their own experiences being Latina in different societies I found this book really interesting because I liked that it was about real encounters that these woman found themselves in and it was a way in which i could connect with the stories For example, one essay written described the bonds that exist within a latino family and i could relate it to how my family works I think that these essay s were very interesting and I am interested in reading oth [...]
It was a good book, short stories to read on break or lunch I liked the way the book was broken up into three sections, The Past We Bring With Us, Our Land Our Lives, and Nuestra Politica.I loved Facing the Mariachis by Alicia Gaspar de Alba and Only Daughter by Sandra CisnerosI also have to say how happy I was to see so many Latina cultures represented in the book, not only the stories I related to but learned about.
This collection really helps describe the roots of our Latina culture as first and second generation women trying to find ourselves in the larger space However, I m jaded, and I feel established in my connections to my roots, so a lot of these stories felt like of the same conversations being had in other anthologies However, among some of the dry writing, I found plenty of chapters that appealed to me in their amazing writing style Definitely worth a read.
Anthology of Latina authors some poignant, some angry I didn t really enjoy or appreciate the political lectures, but I found several of the selections intriguing enough to make me want to read from those authors.
Reminds me that am not alone The stories shared in this book have close connections to my real life experiences Always great to go back and read a storyJust Because.
I unfortunately wasn t able to finish this before the Library came a callin Beautiful work Important work I may end up buying a copy for my own library.
I read this book after college trying to understand of the Latin women s perspective since I have a strange desire to be a latina myself.
Worth owning for the Alicia Gaspar de Alba story alone.
I loved this book A friend once related this muriel rukeyser quote to me, The universe is made of stories, not of atoms yes it is It is good to know our sisters stories always.
El lado femenino latino, del otro lado, d nde est el sue o americano Sin duda mi favorita es Juila Alvarez, con su fragmento de Snow.
